Reverse italics would work so well.

However I feel like to be truly good sarcasm, it needs to fly over someone's head.

While living within it? No.

Your options are too go completely off grid, and homestead. Or to start a revolution and brutally enforce anti capitalist laws.

Even then, you're bound to some system of trade. But if you can cut yourself off from financial institutions you're doing pretty well.

Memeologists do memeology.

Memeographers do memeograms.

What part of "government terrified of successful socialist country" didn't make sense to you?

The US has actively been sabotaging Cuba for 70 years. The fact that they're doing as well as they are speaks volumes about how well they'd be doing without a super power trying it's hardest to drive them in to obscurity.

Ah. Now it makes sense.

The amount of oil in a single tanker isn't likely to affect the US market much. But preventing Cuba from having access to oil would look pretty attractive to a government that's terrified of a successful socialist nation

Nah mate, that's something you can do.

Pull the slats and the ugly ass accent strip off and you'll almost certainly find plan ole drywall or plaster. Get a little fix tube, it will even have a little scraper attached to the bottom as part of the tube, and just spend an hour squirting plaster in to the holes and scrape it smooth. Grab a sanding block, and sand it down once it's dry. Prime, paint, forget about it.

Even if it's a nasty gouge you can still manage the plaster yourself. It might just take a tub and a wide plaster knife but it's certainly not hard.

John Deere ztracks have replacement part lists I managed to find on a retailer website. Most of the parts for mowers are off the shelf anyway, I would imagine the power supply stuff is off the shelf too.

It's political.

Think about it like wrestling. Everybody is a character, nothing is real, but they really need you to believe it is. It's all an act to keep your attention.

That was a joke.

Most people on Lemmy with the technical knowledge and hardware to host their own instance would also almost certainly be Linux users.

I mean, I don't even use Linux, I'm not sure that's possible. No no no, I shall continue to migrate until I find the Goldilocks instance.

They have no authority to enforce any law. And they have no legislative powers.

Rulings have been ignored multiple times because the judiciary just has no means to enforce what the executive branch refuses to enforce
